that is it !!!  you should see nice gifs  for Ip's logged stuff after you set up them in your CP. 

### go in your CP and choose the gif for your ip icon ### 

make sure the gif you have for ip icon is in noncgi or images directory.  

go in style templates and choose style temple to view/edit 



you have many choices in ubb_lib_posting.cgi  

you could use ALT="IP: $ip_number ( $ThisDomain )" 
in your img src and see the ip's easily.  in the ubb_lib_posting.cgi 

dirty work  :)
